Marshmallow Pumpkins

I have a confession to make, I am not a great baker. So when I see an idea like these White Marshmallow Pumpkins that makes me look like one, I am ALL over it! Kori from Paper & Pigtails created these beauties with marshmallow, chocolate & lollipop sticks!


I am SO making these but I am planning on using pretzel sticks instead of a lollipop stick for the stems & maybe a little sugar crystals for sparkle. For directions, please visit Kori's post on Pizzazzerie.

Sprinkles & Stripes

Remember the pretzel flag I made for Memorial Day earlier this year?  My 9 year old Evan asked, "Mom could we could make a flag like the pretzel flag but with marshmallows?"  Now please remember, I am NOT a professional/expert, I am a amateur baker at best & a mom who loves to play in the kitchen with her kids. 



this is our group effort-you can easily tell who put the sprinkles on what marshmallows


but what you can't see, is that they were made with smiles, laughter & love.  And those are the best ingredients in our family kitchen.

Marshmallow Letters

Did I mention that is HOT here in Phoenix?  I am avoiding turning on the oven at all costs but need projects to keep my kids from driving me crazy busy.  Have you seen the Stacker Marshmallows that are flat & rectangular & perfect for S'mores (seriously why didn't someone come up with this before)?


Do you know how easy they are to cut with scissors?


And how messy fun they are to dip & sprinkle?  My kids have managed to cover the entire kitchen floor in red, white & blue sprinkles.




We placed them in the refrigerator to set up before we packaged them with ribbon & Fourth of July tags from my favorite girls at TomKat Studio


 We placed them in cute star buckets & are now ready to deliver to our friends!


Tomorrow we are making marshmallow flags (which is my 9 year olds idea) we'll let you know how they turn out! :)
